Chapter 863 The Wind Has Changed
After negotiating the matter of buying land and building a port, and signing the contract, the group flew back to Shanghai from Kyrgyzstan.

Not long after returning to Shanghai, the petrochemical group and the petroleum group soon came to the door together.

After serving the tea, President Zhang of Petrochemical Group, Li Rufeng and his uncle said, "Dongsheng hasn't paid attention to the recent international ethane price, has he?"

"I really didn't pay attention to this, something went wrong?" Yang Dongsheng asked.

How could Yang Dongsheng not pay attention to the recent international ethane price?

At the beginning of 2007, the international ethane price rose to 500 US dollars per ton, and recently it has rapidly approached 700 US dollars per ton.

If it's just ethane prices going up it's okay!
Along with the price increase of ethane, there are also the storage and transportation costs of ethane.

The storage and transportation procedures of ethane and methane are the same. It must be liquefied first to facilitate storage and transportation.

At present, the cost of liquefaction and storage of ethane at the terminal has risen to 300 US dollars per ton, and the transportation cost has risen to about 200 US dollars per ton.

Plus customs duties, loading and unloading fees, etc., will add another one or two hundred dollars.

Now the CIF price per ton of ethane has reached 1300 to 1400 US dollars, which is about 1 to 1.1 RMB per ton according to the current exchange rate.

Assuming that 1.3 tons of ethane is used to produce one ton of ethylene, the cost per ton of ethylene alone is close to 1.4 RMB.

This does not include a series of expenses such as water, electricity, labor, equipment depreciation, etc.

The long-term agreement signed by Dongsheng Mining with the oil group and the petrochemical group only stipulated the annual supply of ethane, and the specific price fluctuated with the CIF price of ethane.

This is a routine practice, and it is also a little thought of the oil group and the petrochemical group.

In this era, although the exchange rate on the black market is not as exaggerated as in the 90s, it still exceeds the XX exchange rate by a lot.

Who knew that in the end he dug a hole for himself!

"If it continues like this, it may rise to 2000 US dollars per ton next year!" said Mr. Li of the Petroleum Group.

Of course Yang Dongsheng could ask them to execute the original contract and take the opportunity to make a fortune.

However, if the price of ethane is too high, petroleum groups and petrochemical groups will definitely switch back to the original naphtha-to-ethylene route, which is not conducive to the implementation of Yang Dongsheng's plan.

More importantly, the economic crisis is coming. After the middle of next year, the price of ethane will definitely drop sharply, and the price of oil will also drop.

Yang Dongsheng looked at the two of them, and said with a troubled expression, "We need to discuss this!"

The price of ethane can be reduced, but he can't agree so easily, the oil group and the petrochemical group must spit out some benefits.

After negotiation, Dongsheng Mining signed a supplementary agreement with Petroleum Group and Petrochemical Group to supply ethane to the two companies at a price of 6500 yuan per ton for a period of ten years.

As compensation, oil groups and petrochemical groups will provide them with some oil wells.

At the end of October, Yang Dongsheng rushed to Guazhou to attend the completion ceremony of the ethane project.

As usual, Guazhou Airport can't land a few planes a day, and the lawn is almost covered with grass.

As soon as he got out of the airport, he saw a middle-aged man standing at the exit, waving at Yang Dongsheng.

Hu XX held Yang Dongsheng's hand and said, "Do you have time tonight? Give you a chance!"

The two are also in an old relationship, and the other party is about to take care of this, so this face must be given.

The reception banquet was held in the newly built guest house in the city. The environment was very good, and there was even a lake in the guest house.

But after entering the private room, Yang Dongsheng found that there was a middle-aged man in his forties inside.

Hu XX introduced, "This is Manager Chen of Beijiang Company of Taiwan Plastic Industry Company."

This Manager Chen grabbed Yang Dongsheng's hand, "Mr. Yang, it's a pleasure to meet you!"

Yang Dongsheng suddenly felt something was wrong.

After several rounds of drinking, Hu XX and Manager Chen explained their intentions.

Taiwan Plastics Industry Corporation is Taiwan's leading petrochemical company. Ethylene, as one of the most basic raw materials in the petrochemical industry, is also one of their main products.

Not only do they want to compare prices with petroleum groups and petrochemical groups, but they also want to buy ethane from Dongsheng Mining.

It also wants to buy out the international authorization of Dongsheng Mining's methane large-scale ethane production technology.

As for Guazhou, it has recently put forward the slogan of building a chemical industry base, hoping to attract investment from Taiwan.

Yang Dongsheng glanced coldly at the two people in front of him.

Dongsheng Mining's first choice for cooperation is large state-owned enterprises such as petroleum groups and petrochemical groups.

Cooperating with these companies can not only bring economic benefits, but also bring additional political bonuses.

Followed by mainland private chemical companies.

In recent years, domestic petrochemical enterprises in mainland China have developed well.

Yang Dongsheng has never had a good impression of companies in Taiwan, especially Taiwan Plastic Industry Corporation.

Although this company is well-known, and their boss has become the richest man in Taiwan many times, they don't actually have much technology.

The way for Taiwan Plastics Corporation to make money is to meet environmental protection requirements and invest as little as possible in environmental protection.

The petrochemical projects they invest in are all criticized by the locals.

What's more, they sent such a manager from Beijiang Company to buy out the international authorization of Dongsheng Mining's methane large-scale ethane production technology.

This is clearly preparing an empty-handed white wolf!

Hu XX saw that the scene was a bit cold, so he quickly smoothed things over, "Eat vegetables, eat vegetables!"

At this moment, Manager Chen suddenly said, "Actually, I'm also half a Guazhou native. My grandfather fought in Guazhou!"

"War, when?" Hu XX asked.

"It was the Battle of XX, which is what you call the Battle of Huaihai! At that time, my grandfather was fortunately in Lu Province, and there were less than a hundred people under his command. He was just a company commander. My grandfather was very smart. When he came from Lu Province, he All the way to catch strong men, when they arrived in Guazhou, there were already three to four hundred people under his command, and his chief saw him and immediately promoted him to be the battalion commander!" Manager Chen didn't know if he was drunk, and he completely forgot that he was in the camp. Where, he continued triumphantly, "During the war, my grandfather directly asked these strong men to go forward, and consumed a lot of XXX bullets!"

The atmosphere in the private room suddenly cooled down.

Especially Yang Dongsheng, his face was ashen, "Did your grandfather tell you where he caught the young men?"

"How can I remember so much?" Manager Chen waved his hand, loosened his belt and said, "I'm going to the bathroom!"

"I'll help you!" Yang Dongsheng stood up.

Hu XX was still a little dazed and didn't react at all, so Yang Dongsheng helped Manager Chen out of the private room and down the stairs.

Although Manager Chen drank too much, he still felt something was wrong, "Where are we going, this doesn't seem like a toilet?"

"You drank too much, the toilet is in front of you!" Yang Dongsheng pulled Manager Chen to the lake.

"Is this the toilet? The scenery is pretty good!" Manager Chen unbuttoned his pants.

"The scenery is not bad?" Yang Dongsheng sneered, "Then you can come closer to enjoy it!"

Yang Dongsheng took two steps back and looked around.

There was a waiter not far away, who just glanced at them and walked away.

Yang Dongsheng kicked down.

"Ah!" Manager Chen screamed and fell down.

Yang Dongsheng turned his head and left. At the same time, he took out his mobile phone and asked the bodyguard to drive over.

After getting in the car, the bodyguard saw that Yang Dongsheng had an ugly face and showed hesitation.

"What's the matter?" Yang Dongsheng asked.

"Director Li said that the wind direction in Japan has changed!"
